Episode 95: Uprising
Its time for an Uprising! Or at least a preview of one. Today’s episode sees us talk to Josh, one of the triumvirate of organisers for South Australia’s largest Warhammer 40,000 event – Uprising! First run in January 2021 as the end of ITC Oceania Circuit for the 2020 season, Uprising hosted 96 players across the Australia Day long weekend.
We talk about all the challenges, trials and more for the first event the boys ran as well as their hopes and plans for the future. We really appreciate Josh joining us for this episode and hope we can get all 3 of the team for our follow up episode!
News wise we talk about the Games Workshop Event series in the USA as well as some of the community concerns, we cover Gaunts Ghosts and their long preorder wait, the new action figures from Macfarlane, the new Forgeworld Argel Tal model (stunning as it is!) and then the giant golden elephant in the room – Dominion. You can even download the free core rules now! Thanks very much to Games Workshop for sending us this amazing box – expect more info from our first AoS games soon!
